Important Note:
* Some Disney movies deal with death in a nuanced way, even if the main characters survive. This is especially true in films like "Bambi" or "The Lion King," where the death of a parent figure impacts the story heavily.
* Disney's "death" can also be symbolic: In movies like "Peter Pan," growing up is often portrayed as a form of "death" to the world of childhood.
* Different interpretations exist: Some people might consider characters like the "good guys" who die in "Frozen" or "Brave" to be main characters, even if they don't get the main focus of the story.
